Description, Features
and Benefits
The VX-3000d Series Home Theater Projector and DHD Controller is Runco’s newest,
most affordable VideoXtreme™ projection system. Feature-rich and performance-heavy,
the VX-3000d offers a native 1080p resolution DLP™ light engine with Runco’s powerful
SuperOnyx™ technology for bright, flawless images.
Featuring high-end components, such as O-Path™ light path enhancement technology
and AxiShift™ multidirectional lens shift capability, the VX-3000d perfectly projects from
movie players, digital television and a myriad of other sources all in beautiful
high-definition.
Runco’s advanced Vivix™ digital video processing is included to enhance picture quality
from standard video sources, as well as provide artifact-free scaling. Also included are
discrete input source, aspect ratio, power on/off, HDMI™ input and an RS-232 interface
for seamless integration with automation control systems.
All models feature a precision optics package with electronic lens shift. The standard
VX-3000d projection lens has a throw range of from 1.87 to 2.20 times the screen width.
The VX-3000d
Ultra provides even greater installation flexibility, with five lens options from
which to choose offering throw distances ranging from 1.06 to 4.80 times the screen
width. Electronic focus and zoom controls further simplify installation and setup of a
VX-3000d
Ultra.
The VX-3000d's illumination system provides two light intensity levels to allow maximum
flexibility for screen size, ambient light conditions, brightness and contrast balance, and
lamp life preservation. It also has a newly refined cooling system, which increases
efficiency and reduces noise levels.
The VX-3000d has been engineered to comply with Imaging Science Foundation™ (ISF)
standards for maximum home theater image quality. Runco's sophisticated parameters
for white balance and color gamut control have also been implemented for precise
balance of gray scale and color. The VX-3000d incorporates Runco-proprietary
de-interlacing technology that provides exceptional scaling and film-to-video (3:2
pulldown) conversion for the most artifact-free images possible.
For uncompromising widescreen reproduction of movies originally filmed in the “scope”
(2.35:1) format, the VX-3000d can be equipped with Runco’s patent-pending CineWide™
technology, a combination of software, electronics and high-quality anamorphic optics.
CineWide maintains constant vertical height on the screen just as in a movie theater.
When a viewer transitions from 1.78:1 (16:9) program material to 2.35:1, the image simply
gets wider while full height is maintained. Also available with the VX-3000d is CineWide
with AutoScope™, an enhanced, remote-controlled motorized version of CineWide.
CineWide requires the use of a 2.35:1 or similar aspect ratio superwide
format screen.
